Gateway Academy

Because of distance learning we had to modify learner's personal projects. Instead of an in person showcase, we opted to try a digital project showcase presentation. So here it is, @GWA192 's Final Project Showcase of 2019-2020. Enjoy! youtube.com/playlist?list=… @district192

Starting to look into the 2020-2021 school year? Make sure you check out Gateway Academy. Our personalized competency based learning environment just may be the right fit for your learner! Schedule a tour for more info: goo.gl/forms/bmM3z74x… @DodgeTigers @district192

A little bit of snow doesn’t impact learning! Learners documented and analyzed data from previous rocket launches as well as continued to get their parachutes to deploy consistently. Lots of reflecting happening! @DodgeTigers #isd192 #launch192 #problemsolving

We got four walls secured today! Couldn’t have done it without the help of @cbolson26’s strength class! Both 18’ and 10’ sections were completed 1st block. Couldn’t get any pictures of the learners carrying the walls though. #gwabikeshed #isd192 @DodgeTigers @PBLWorks

The fourth wall was completed this morning! We also were able to take the 10’ section out, fasten it to the slab AND it even fit through the door! It is braced and we’re waiting for reinforcements for the 18’ sections. #gwabikeshed #isd192 #realworldmath @PBLWorks @DodgeTigers

Bike shed, assemble!!! (Read in a Ron Burgundy voice) Learners started constructing the longest wall on the #GWAbikeshed today. They even measured to make sure it would get out the door before getting too carried away! 6 screws away from finishing the side. #isd192 @PBLWorks

Ready to roll on the building phase of the #GWAbikeshed Thanks @LampertLumber for the lumber donation! Learners even had to unload the truck. #isd192 @PBLWorks @knowledgeworks

Learners did a phenomenal job with digging and even learned a bit about monolithic slabs!

Just received an awesome email from a company that will donate ALL the concrete we need for “the shed project“ from last year! Ss will be extremely excited about this news and can actually start building after all this planning! #isd192 @GWA192 @district192

Learners are hearing about our #personalizedlearning triage board. They will eventually choose what they are working on and the location that best fits that learning. Goal setting, conferencing, and reflecting will be done throughout the process. @GWA192 @district192

Thanks for a great year full of many trip to the library @dakotalib! Ss really enjoyed your knowledge and assistance with finding reliable sources for their projects. #walkingtothelibrary

@MelissaSauser Yes, students will present from 11:40-12:40 still today.

@GWA192 Will any of it be during the day?

Have any plans tomorrow evening from 5:45-7:00? Come check out our final project showcase of the year! #geniushour #passionprojects #isd192

The @GWA192 project showcase is under way for RVES students. Thanks for the audience! @rvesnews @MathCoach_AAC @district192

Check out our Personal Projects this Wednesday, May 22nd. Public is welcome! #geniushour #isd192 tiny.cc/GWAshowcase

Excited to see other Ss and adults learn how and why a student made this table. #geniushour #carpetball

A preview for Wednesday’s project showcase! A Student made their very own carpetball table. Ss wanted to test it out so they had to bring it outside. Come see more projects Wed night. @GWA192 #isd192 #pbl

Powerful morning reflecting and learning with @district192 teachers about our year together using learner profiles and supporting learner agency. @bergjaso @Soup192 @LisaEdwards192 @loriphilips1026 @knowledgeworks @fleenorgeo @BetonKerry

@fhscreatechange @DodgeTigers Thanks for hosting today’s event! The students enjoyed the challenge of trying to carry 40 lbs around the track. #WEwalkforwater @WEMovement

@DodgeTigers and @GWA192 are here starting their walk for water!!!
